An even more interesting stat (you might feel shame after reading this)

Was brought up on the fast last night. This stat makes me sick right to my stomach. This is why Bosh needs to go. You don't pay power forwards max deals unless you have a lot more talent then we can afford around him.

When announcers and analysts toss around stats regarding a team's record against opponents with records above or below .500, you have to keep a couple of things in mind. Most importantly, are they talking about the teams that are currently above .500? Or are they talking about teams that were above .500 at the time of the game? For example, Cleveland was technically below .500 when we played the Cavs (0-1), so some announcers/analysts might not count them in a stat. Conversely, a team like the Hornets was above .500 when the Raps beat them, so they would count in the Raps win column. Personally, I find it more useful to know what Toronto's record is against teams that are currently above .500

After giving the schedule a quick glance, the Raps appear to be 11-30 when playing opponents with records above .500

So, either way, the Raps haven't done very well against solid opponents. But, as you can see, they've done a little better than 1-25...lol

If guys like Hedo, Bargs and Jose & Belli can step up on a consistent basis then this team is going to be better. If they don't.... then it won't.... no matter who's here as "the franchise guy".

Problem is our supporting cast is not going anywhere because they all just got deals, so the number one guy has to be replaced. Hey i would love it if Bosh could stay and we could go over the tax to sign the next number 2 guy...but we cant, so he has to go and we need to sign Joe Johnson this off season instead.
